Inquiry at its best !

What do you do when the court yard floods! We'll you build boats!

We took the river to try our boats and we discovered quickly that some sank, tiped and others floated! Mlle. Tessier came to the rescue walking into the river to rescue our boats !

Battery Drive

Our Eco club has put us to the test !! Can we help save the environment by bringing in our used and unwanted batteries. Throwing them in the garbage in harmful to the earth. The class who brings the most used and unwanted batteries gets to enjoy FREEZIES :) 

Community

What's in a community? We will be discussing community helpers in the upcoming weeks. We have read books about being a teacher, fire fighter, construction worker, chef, veterinarian, police officer, etc.. 

 If their are any parents out their who would be willing to discuss their career with the class and put on a small demonstration please feel free to write us a note. Thank you!

Je partage !

One of our classmates wanted to share his talent of playing the violin with us. Him and his mother did a special concert for us. We enjoyed their visit so much and we were so proud of our classmate for playing in front us. A big thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Math all around us !!

We having diving deep into math terms this week. Learning how to guess (devine) not using too big numbers or too little of a number. Talking about more than, less than and the same. (plus que, moins que et le meme que). Encourage your children to find patterns and explore math wherever you are (Eg. shapes, measurement and patterns). 

Cooking is a great way to explore and learn about numbers and volume.
We celebrated spring by making kite shaped cookies!

 

Look at our creative minds !

One child started talking about Sharks and this is what happened. 

We brought in some reading materials about the ocean and sharks (les requins)

At the end of the Magic school Bus book Mme. Friselis class painted a mural. Mlle. Little et Mme. Knapp wouldn't it be great if we made our own mural. 

  We had them draw a plan of what they would like in their ocean.

THIS IS THE END RESULT ! WOW

Il y a des poisson, une baleine et une barracuda.
